Bjorn3D's XFX GeForce 7800 GS AGP Review

[digitalwanderer]

Nice job Scott! You win this morning for Dig's "Most Droolworthy Review" over coffee!

INSANE factory clocks on that beasty, and well warranteed! Is XFX a decent card company? I'm kind of out of touch with all things nVidia... :oops:

Thanks for the review, just thought I'd start a post about it since I didn't see one. :)

Welcome back, digi! Long time no see!

XFX makes great cards. I have several and have had no issues with them. We used to recommend BFG a lot because of its lifetime warranty but now XFX gets the recommendation most often because of the double lifetime warranty. :)

(oh and i helped out on the review so i helped make you drool) :lol:

Hey Shane, nice avatar! I was just getting ready to catch up with Naruto, I gave up for a while after the "Curry-o-life" filler arch but someone told me since #170 came out it's time to catch up...

You guys get a chance to try hooking up that card to an HDTV yet?

Thanks. Naruto is still doing fillers and will be for another month or so I believe. The last ones are okay, but Bleach is my new fav anime. Naruto might compete again once they get back to trying to find Sasuke. I'm sick of Naruto being so dumb all the time and using the damn kage bunshin no jutsu for EVERY fight. I don't think they should totally change him but can't he mature like 5% maybe?

Scott has the card and I don't think he hooked it up to a TV. I don't think he has an HDTV yet anyway.

Bleach is on fillers for a while too, but they seem a lot better than the Naruto ones. I'm also following MyOtome and Gunparade Orchestra lately, since FMP:TSR ended.

We finally got an HDTV for xmas, but I still haven't gotten around to hooking up my PC to it yet....everyone is always using it. :roll:

Recent Bleach eps don't feel like fillers to me. I'll have to check out MyOtome and I do have plans to check out GO already but couldn't find it anywhere.

FMP:TSR was pretty good. I can't wait for the next season. :)

it's nice to see that nvidia is not totally forgetting about the agp market:). It looks like a great agp card for those who are looking to upgrade.

Y would they most ppl using pcs right now use AGP lol

I plan on getting an HD TV when Playstation 3 comes out. Thinking about getting a 60" and putting it in my office.

I was very surprised on how it performs. It has it up and down but overall an alright card. Prolly the best bet for AGP till you go PCI-E.

looks like you plan to get a PS3 as well. Man, it would be intersting to see what feature would PS3 brings.

It's a for now thing. It may be the best for now, but it will be bested, no doubt.

AGP card makers will be motivated by those AGP troublemakers. You know the ones.

The ones that say, "I'll give up my AGP when you can pry it from my cold dead hands."

[liqnit]

i don't think AGP is somthing heat people will say
"I'll give up my AGP when you can pry it from my cold dead hands."

it is just that people has spend a lot money getiing a system with AGP and to lave it all just because you cant find a very good gprphic card is really annoying.

let's not forget people are still buying PCI graphic cards.
so the market is there and NVIDIA is doing a very smart thing by supplying great cards to that market

[digitalwanderer]

I'm really hoping that high demand for this card & such will shame ATi into making an AGP X18xx or X19xx....

I get this funny feeling sometimes. There's a prescense. I feel a cold chill run up and down my spine. There's a hand. It's in my pocket trying to get my wallet. They want my wallet! They want my money!

Of course, they will do whatever they have to do to get it. They will keep AGP on life support as long as they can. They do this, not for humanitarian reasons, nor from the good of their heart, they do this for profit.
